The free vibration of orthotropic rectangular thin plates with four free edges on two-parameter elastic foundations is studied by the symplectic superposition method. Firstly, by analyzing the boundary conditions, the original vibration problem is converted into two sub-vibration problems of the plates slidingly clamped at two opposite edges. Based on slidingly clamped at two opposite edges, the fundamental solutions of these two sub-vibration problems are respectively derived by the separation variable method of the corresponding Hamiltonian system, and then the symplectic superposition solution of the original vibration problem is obtained by superimposing the fundamental solutions of the two sub-problems. Finally, the symplectic superposition solution obtained in this study is verified by calculating the frequencies and mode functions of several concrete rectangular thin plates with four free edges.

AbstractLaplace Transform is often used in solving the free vibration problems of structural beams. In existing research, there are two types of simplified models of continuous beam placement. The first is to regard the continuous beam as a single-span beam, the middle bearing of which is replaced by the bearing reaction force; the second is to divide the continuous beam into several simply supported beams, with the bending moment of the continuous beam at the middle bearing considered as the external force. Research shows that the second simplified model is incorrect, and the frequency equation derived from the first simplified model contains multiple expressions which might not be equivalent to each other. This paper specifies the application method of Laplace Transform in solving the free vibration problems of continuous beams, having great significance in the proper use of the transform method.

Abstract The development of (DQEM) analysis models of static deformation and free vibration problems of generic non-prismatic beam structures was carried out. The DQEM uses the extended differential quadrature (EDQ) to discretize the buckling equilibrium equation defined on each element, the transition conditions defined on the inter-element boundary of two adjacent elements and the boundary conditions of the beam. Numerical results solved by the developed numerical algorithm are presented. They prove that the DQEM efficient.

Abstract The free vibration analysis of homogeneous and isotropic circular thin plates by using the Green’s functions is considered. The formulae for construction of the influence function for all nodal diameters are presented in a closed form. The limited independent solutions of differential Euler equations were expanded in the Neumann power series using the method of successive approximation. This approach allows to obtain the analytical frequency equations as power series rapidly convergent to exact eigenvalues for different number of nodal diameters. The first ten dimensionless frequencies for eight different natural modes of circular plates are calculated. A part of obtained results have not been presented yet in open literature for thin circular plates. The results of investigation are in good agreement with selected results obtained by other methods presented in literature.

This study introduces using differential transform to solve the free vibration problems of a general elastically end restrained non-uniform Timoshenko beam. First, differential transform is briefly introduced. Second, taking differential transform of a non-uniform Timoshenko beam vibration problem, a set of difference equations is derived. Doing some simple algebraic operations on these equations, we can determine any i-th natural frequency, the closed form series solution of any i-th normalized mode shape. Finally, three examples are given to illustrate the accuracy and efficiency of the present method.
